The interest which the people of this Country take in die affairs of Spain at the present very itn- portani eri,is, is highly h'otioitrahle to the British . charatter, and wit,aris happy to find that.all parties, whatever their political . tlitt:orerences may be, unite in common zeal ku i rescue that Country front .the dreadful oppresiion.whicb.inay otherwise befall it.— The other Nublentan, whose arrival from Spain we atinowieed last wrk, and - whose name we under stand . 'LAU CORIWiIn Y RPNTERID, had vi sited Galneia, bvturt• 11e embarked for this. Country, Ana 'we are happy to find :.that, according to his report, the pe(;ple of tlu Province were in the highest degree enraged- against . the French, and determined to hu2kstd every thing in defence of their Country. They haksectired all the passe, stVoug= I:olds, c...and wet.° preparing for the most vigorous resistance, They were' daily joined by desertera from the Spanish Army-, s4ho will of course be of great uie in training their countrymen to the - we of arms. It 'Limid alga, on the same . au;• thOrity, that an Irish" , Biikde, whiCh had been scut to subdue bottle& the Patriots, had, with their Officers, joined the Patriotic Artily. The - same' noble irn. pr availed pt St. Ander°, as we: before stated, .eittt 10,060 stand of arms had been sent to the'peo !plea that place. Three thousand. French troops, 'who were stationed at St. Sebastian, had SeiZed a itronz, castle near that plat:e; but the Slianish Pa 7 tiiots 'Wade light of that event, confidently eiped ing a general rising of the - people. As the Amu . - 'rians were not . apprized of - the ,formal abdicatiOn. which BUONAPARTE had exaeled from the Royal Family at .11Jyonne,. the Standard they had raised was in the name of Fzipit.:ANn the Seventh ; I:11 long ere'the present time they have doobilesslearn.. ed all that disgraceful history, `n , l it was of :;Ourse likely to give a new stimulus to their detestation of French artifice and villainy: The Srertiards had in- , the. sdignantly Oiled down the French Flag which .had . ,been hoisted at-Couanna. It is _even_ said that the. unfortunate CHARLES the Fourth, in addition to the melancholy necessity of resigning his Crown, to W bicl i t he had been compelled by BtIONAPittTE, had been obliged to recUmmend the French Usurper's brother Jnsm; as' the most' proper personAo;suCceed to the'vacautThrone. Such an outrageous insult to the common sense as welt as patriotic feelings of the SPaniards, must tend to inflame those te.elings, I to the utmost excess of virtuous indignatiou. On ' the darer hand, there are reports that a numerous 'body of the Patriotic Spaniards had been sacrificed by ~. the French at Salveterra, that BUoNAPARTE had . . - himself advanced to Pampeluna with powerful res inforcerneitts, and. was proceeding with the utmost . rapidity towards the Asturias. This latter, report .dogs not .rat upon .any probable :grounds. Ulfon the whole, when we reflect on the spirit which must . , . be roused in Many parts of Spain, and which May . , .. ... be expeCted to spread throughout the Country, as welLaS...upon the encouragement it...will.derive front the generous zeal which ..I...4reak .13ritaiw,tiikes in it s ' muse;!and the 'powerful assistance which it is so protnptiy rendering, sVe' are disposed to entertain ardent hopes that the pro;:cresS Of the French Usurper will at' least be stopped iti this insiatice, if a more signal vengeance doe's not await his insatia , hie ambition, and monstrous attempt to enslave a people, after he has ensnared their Sovereign. and his fainilyinto ruin. lii this fiagitious en . tererize his ambition has shewn itself without any thing like a disguise. his the tuosCoaresfaced act of oppression :that ever appeared in the records o f . . . tyranny, and ' may be expeeed to operate upon the . . feelings of every Illobarch,. and evely People in - - . Europe. It is impossible for the Tyrant to urge the shadow of a Plea for his condud on this occasion, and If he could glually succeed in conquering the People_of Spain, his success would necessarily be of short duration ; t)or.is it likely that any of his family, or any of his minions, would have hardihoOd f enough to,venture to-itut.Unt theThroue of that Counir,Y: • , Yesterday mornitor. hit MAJESTY, Prineosses..iw- GUM% , MARY, aneAmr.LlA, accompinied l ,s Lord Ay LLSFORD, Marchioness of BATH and daughter ; Ladies ALLIIVA.

While in'tilis.attitude, a cymon ball from the Virginie took his, arm off within a few inches of the shoulder ; the dismembered limb fell into the hold unheeded,' and the i i i-oor fellow was, put under the care of a surgeon. In two days afterwards, when the hold was examined and.clean iog out, the arm was fOund, with the sword so firmly grasped in the hand, that no common force could disengage it ; and it therefore became neces sary to cot off the fingers to separate the sword and hand. It was, however, -previouSly shewn to a tpunber of. persons, in order that so extraordinary a tact should bc confirmed by strong and indisputable testimony. This gallant Purser was afterwards taken on board the Trent Flag Ship, and' though at first &paired of, skill and attention changed his condi-. tion to convalescence, and he is now recovering fast.—(Cork Merc.
